Installing the I/O Modules
It does not matter where you install each I/O module, except in the following
cases:
•
If you plan to cascade power between any I/O modules using the V and C
terminals, group those modules together. Refer to the
FP-2000/2010/2015
User Manual for more information about cascading power.
Caution
Cascading power defeats isolation.
•
For more accurate measurements, place thermocouple modules away from
heat sources, including network modules and relay modules, and mount
thermocouple modules on FP-TB-3 terminal bases.
A. Align slots on module with guide rails on base, and press module onto base
until terminal base latch locks module in place.
B.
Repeat for each I/O module.
